Kings of New York: Giants Beat The Jets

NY Giants vs Jets Week 16The anticipated week 16 game between the NY Giants vs the Jets leaves the GMEN as kings of New York with a 29-14 win!

A position which they truly have always had no matter how much it hurts Jets fans. NYC is a big blue town with some green specs sprinkled in. No matter how much of a big mouth Rex Ryan has he cannot change the fact the Jets will always be the little brother in the big apple.

Ryan can talk all he wants but he doesn’t have to take the field, his players do. It wasn’t a pretty game but a win is win especially in a playoff Continue reading

Tony Romo Better Wear Extra Padding Week 14 Vs Giants

Tony Romo Against NY GiantsDallas Cowboys QB Tony Romo better gear up and add some extra padding for the upcoming week 14 game against the NY Giants.

The Giants are coming off what can only be described as a mugging by referees week 13 when they played the Green Bay Packers. They will be an angry bunch who will be looking to dish out some punishment, something Romo knows all to well when facing Big Blue.

Last season in week 7 Giants LB Michael Boley put a hit on Tony Romo which broke his collarbone (left clavicle). The Dallas Cowboys season went down along with their quarterback. After 3 straight weeks of bad defensive line play the GMEN “D” line played hard against Aaron Rodgers and the Packers despite not having Osi Umenyoira. The final score was 38-35 which usually is indicative of a poor effort but that wasn’t the case for the defensive line. There is no reason to believe Continue reading

Perry Fewell’s Giants Pass Rush and Defense Has Gone Missing

Perry Fewell GiantsNew York Giants Defensive Coordinator Perry Fewell’s defense is suddenly missing in action. To be more specific the Giants pass rush has gone missing!

The once ferocious pass rush which led the NFL in sacks for most of the season has been tamed, silenced and dominated by opponents. This disappearing act can be traced back to week 9 against the New England Patriots where New York played solid defense for 3 quarters and then in the 4th QT stopped pressuring Tom Brady. Since that game they are no where to be found!

New York currently ranks 6th overall in the NFL with 31 sacks but in the last 3 weeks they have only been able to record 3 sacks. Against the 49ers 2 , versus the Eagles only 1  and this past week against Drew Brees and the New Orleans Saints the Giants failed to get any sacks and rarely pressured the QB. The only consistent player on the defensive line for the GMEN has been Jason Pierre-Paul who currently Continue reading

Saints QB Drew Brees Dissects New York Giants Defense

Drew Brees vs GiantsNew Orleans Saints QB Drew Brees Dissects the New York Giants defense week 12 and blows them out of the Superdome. Final score 49-24.

Second straight week in which New York seemed completely out of it. They displayed little passion out on the field and their glaring weaknesses are now being exposed as they face tougher opposition.The Giants now find themselves in a familiar place, right smack in the middle of a second half collapse which has become a recurring theme under coach Tom Coughlin.

What is really frustrating for fans is that everyone knows the Giants season is on the line yet they are not playing like it. Missed tackles, dropped balls, dumb penalties have plagued the GMEN this season but even more surprising is the lack of a rushing attack and even more surprising than that is Continue reading

Michael Boley, Mario Manningham, Ahmad Bradshaw Did Not Practice

week 11 injury report ny giantsAnother week with a lot of injuries for the New York Giants, LB Michale Boley, WR Mario Manningham and RB Ahmad Bradshaw did not practice Friday and may not play week 12 against the New Orleans Saints.

Unfortunately for NY they have one consistent theme going this season and that is their weekly injury report which usually is long and includes important starting players. RB Ahmad Bradshaw was hoping to come back this week to face the Saints but it isn’t looking good as of now.

Will Beatty has already been ruled out for the Monday Night game week 12. Osi Umenyiora and Justin Tuck Continue reading

Eli Manning Saves NY Giants From Catastrophe Against Dolphins

Eli Manning NY Giants vs Miami DolphinsEli Manning saves the NY Giants from a catastrophic loss against the Miami Dolphins in week 8. As inconceivable as it may sound New York may have saved their season and playoff hopes this week with a 20-17 come from behind win over the winless Dolphins.

Miami was a 10 point underdog coming into the game but played an inspired first half unlike the Giants who once again seemed out of rhythm and lackadaisical to start the game. It seems the GMEN can only focus in and play their best football in the 4th quarter.

Eli Manning was superb completing 31 of 45 passes for 349 yards and 2 touchdowns. He could have easily ended up with 35 completions but 4 perfectly thrown balls were dropped. Two drops by Hakeem Nicks who left the game in the 4th quarter Continue reading

Justin Tuck, Brandon Jacobs, Chris Snee and Henry Hynoski Out Week 6 vs Bills

Justin Tuck Brandon Jacobs Chris Snee Henry Hynoski Out Week 6The NY Giants officially ruled out Justin Tuck, Brandon Jacobs, Chris Snee and Henry Hynoski for week 6 against the Buffalo Bills.

New York who has had a battered roster this year was hopeful to get some of their starters back even though Tuck would have been a long shot with his groin and neck issues. Prince Amukamara as expected will not play but the GMen are hopeful he will be back soon as he has progressed well through his rehab.

Unfortunately for the Giants more bad news may come in the next two days. Center David Baas is still questionable for Sundays game as is Zak DeOssie the long snapper.

There aren’t many bright spots when it comes to injuries for Big Blue but Continue reading
